Counties and municipalities; compensation of local officials, revised

Summary

The bill rewrites Alabama law to place the 67 counties into six population categories and sets minimum pay levels for sheriffs, county commissioners, judges of probate, and several tax‑related officials. It establishes a $50,000 floor for sheriffs and ties other officials’ compensation to percentage increases that vary by county size, while also allowing up to $10,000 in expense allowances for tax officials. Counties may choose to opt out of the new rules by adopting a resolution.
